Hieroglyphs written in red paint on the floor of a hidden chamber in Egypt's Great Pyramid are numerical signs meaning 100, 20 and 1. [Djedi Team]

Based upon what do they make this claim?

Do they just think that this is the best guess?

Or do they have a consensus of elite scientific minds who think this is the best guess?

It seems that is all they do in regards to archaeology, just make guesses and then proclaim them as being facts.

Just as their claims about how the pyramids were built, who built them and why they were built. All guesses and not based upon facts even, imo.

The Great Pyramid of Ghiza was measured in the 1880s by Flinders Petrie as having sides of length 230.25 to 230.4 m, with a mean of 230.355 m. Postulating them as being 250 cubits points to a cubit of about 461 mm and a fathom of about 1.84 m, i.e. very close to today's international nautical mile, the length of 1 minute of latitude. In turn this indicates that the Ancient Egyptians, nearly 5 000 years ago, measured Earth's radius. Read more: http://www.answers.com/main/ntquery?s=cubits&gwp=16

Ha! I know what those markings are...they say “Kilroy was here”

[Little Bill]

All of this marking thing is cool, but why did they block this riser so elaborately rather than the others?

Ancient Egyptian Dig Permit markings?

"Multiples of 7, 9 and 11 cubits occur frequently in the design of the Great pyramid."

They misspelled "qberts."
